Feeling Rich, Looking Rich And Claiming To Be Rich

[kobe2death]

It's cheap.

 

I'm proud to be poor!

[TanglewoodBoy]

Pag looking rich, ok lang cguro kase there are those na pag nakabihis eh mukhang rich talaga. Pero pag feeling and claiming rich na, sakit na to sa utak. Best description cguro ay SOCIAL CLIMBER.

 

yes, and yun pa ang mas nakakaasar kaysa sa mga mayaman mismo....

 

[TanglewoodBoy]

mas maganda talaga yung pinagpaguran mo yung pag-yaman mo and not something inherited or given to you on a silver platter (nanalo sa lotto, etc..) kasi you'd probably not pretend to be rich since mayaman ka na nga....

 

 

that's why bilib ako sa mga rich friends ko na di mayabang, sobrang simple and very nice...

[Fumigator]

kadalasan sa mga nakaka tex ko ganito mga social climber nakakainis pag lalabas nman kayo ikaw rin gagastos mahahalata mo cla sa kwento nila sa mga salita nila. pde nman kasi umamin dva insecurity lang tlga cguro bkit nagiging ganito sila nag po poser nlang cla ako nahihiya pra sa knila ako lahat sinasabi ko agad pra naka set na agad ung utak ng chik na hanggang dun lang ako. gusto ko yumaman pag tanda ko pero ngayon chillax lang muna.

i'd charge it to 300+ years of Spanish colonial rule. :thumbsdownsmiley:

and a seemingly lifetime US "influence". :thumbsdownsmiley:

 

mahirap makipagtalo sa mga taong binili na ang ilang libro ng twilight pero hindi pa nakabasa ng kahit isang libro ni

bob ong, o ni jessica zafra, o ni ricky lee, o ni lualhati bautista, o articles ni michael tan.

 

Pwede namang mag-Ingles, dahil yun ang universal language sa ngayon... pero sana hanggang dun na lang.

sana pakita natin kung ano talaga ang Pinoy. :thumbsupsmiley:

[dorkas]

[orionquest]

to those people who pretend to look, act and feel rich lest they forget its hazzardous to their health, maraming kidnapper sa pinas baka madali pa sila.

 

on a serious note, affluence should not be bragged about. nothing to be ashamed of if im not rich. why pretend? theres no need to. im contented with what i have.

i know a few rich people na mayaman talaga one of them ay may ari ng shipping lines gosh! super simple ala nga suot na relo and ang cp 3310 lang. ung isa nman may barko din. pag lumabas nakashort at tsinelas lang. the third one mukhang taong grasa sa dungis. pero ung mga kakilala ko na pretending hanep ganda cp lagi bago damit pero ang 2k na utang mag 6 yrs na cguro ayaw bayaran... nyahahaha

hindi lang naman siguro Pinoy ang ganito. kahit naman siguro sa ibang culture, ganito rin yung iba.

 

personally, i think there's two sides to this coin. on the one hand, there are people who feel, look or claim to be rich. on the other hand, there are people who are not comfortable in the presence of other people who are rich (whether they are truly rich or not).

 

for the first set of people, i think that as long as you spend within your means, it's fine. people can always save up for signature stuff if that's their preference. what's bad is if you neglect other important needs because of your obsession for expensive/branded stuff. or if you belittle others who may live more frugally, or do not have the same material things or preferences that you have. feeling or looking rich is not a bad thing per se. it's an affirmation of your own value and how you deserve only the best. and what better way to love yourself than with expensive things.

 

as for the second set of people, they need to learn how to handle socio-economic and cultural differences. the truly rich people may not be aware of how they make other people feel, it's just their way of life - a lifestyle they're used to. and those who are not comfortable in the presence of the truly rich or the feeling rich are left feeling insecure about themselves.
